Interesting you mention polio vaccine. I guess you realize that the initial vaccine release was pulled and it wasn't till 5 years later that they actually rolled out the vaccine successfully. Then it was even done with great hesitation due to the initial failure with the vaccine causing kids to catch polio.
So calling people stupid for knowing history and learning from it makes you look like a fool.
My assumption, once the vaccines have been proven successful and safe, then people will accept the vaccine. Yet, with our government track history and the speed of this rollout, one is foolish for not doing the research and making a choice if they want to accept the risk or not. Forcing a vaccine on people that hasn't been proven is wrong.
Before you start down the path that I hate vaccines, I have all my vaccines, including my current flu shot and the J&J Covid vaccine. I refused to get the others (Covid vaccines), but that is my choice and shouldn't be forced upon me.
Study history a little before you go around insulting people.
The polio virus causes flu-like symptoms in most people who catch it. But in a minority of those infected, the brain and spinal cord are affected; polio can cause paralysis and even death. With the distribution of Salk’s vaccine, the much-feared stalker of children and young adults had seemingly been tamed. Within days, however, the initial mass inoculation program went off the rails.
The world initially rejoiced as Salk’s vaccine came online. He declined to patent it, to make it available to all. Immediately following the government’s licensing of the Salk vaccine, the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis contracted with private drug companies for US$9 million worth of vaccine (around $87 million today) – about 90% of the stock. They planned to provide it free to the country’s first and second graders. But just two weeks after the first doses were administered, the Public Health Service reported that six inoculated children had come down with polio.
As the number of such incidents grew, it became clear that some of the shots were causing the disease they were meant to prevent. A single lab had inadvertently released adulterated doses.
After considerable fumbling and outright denial, Surgeon General Leonard Steele first pulled all tainted vaccine off the market. Then, less than a month after the initial inoculations, the U.S. shut down distribution entirely. It wasn’t until the introduction of a new polio vaccine in 1960, created by Albert Sabin, that public trust returned.
